hi, i’m new to this awesome forum. 🙂 i apology if this has been mentioned before.

it’s starting to get on my nerve. grr, i’m trying to get backward button to work and it did but it goes all the way to beginning of the movieclip. forward button works just fine, it stops whatever frame has stop();. any help will be great!

here’s an example on what i have done so far. i’m so confused with actionscript.

hope that makes sense. :h:

Welcome, silencerelite. :beam:

I changed a few things (actually, I changed the whole thing!), let me know if you have any questions. 😛
